It's the dream of most students to study abroad, as they see it as a thrilling experience to study at a place so far away from home, different culture and different people. One of the major reasons students decide to study abroad is to search for greener pastures,  simply put they hope to get a good job thereafter or whilst they are studying, although this sounds like an exciting endeavor, today we'd look at some affordable destinations for foreign students, read till the end cause we'd love to share a secret tool to make your abroad study plans more achievable.

 

Malaysia

When it comes to living expenditures, Malaysia is without a doubt one of the most affordable countries for overseas students to study. Regarding affordability, Malaysia's capital, Kuala Lumpur, was ranked #1 in the QS Best Student Cities 2016; most students will only need about MYR 14,400 (US$3,550) a year to live comfortably in Malaysia.

Tuition expenses are around US$4,000 per academic year, however, certain degrees are significantly less expensive. Malaysia also has a handful of affiliates of overseas universities, like the University of Nottingham in the United Kingdom and Monash University in Australia, which allows students to get a degree from these universities at a cheaper rate.

 

Norway

While studying in any of the Nordic countries is cheaply priced, we specifically chose Norway since its public universities are still open to all students, both European and non-European, except for a few specialized programs.

Like the other Nordic nations of Europe, Norway is renowned for its breathtaking scenery and high standard of living. The vast majority of native English speakers and the abundance of English-taught courses available at all study levels are two other benefits of studying in Norway. Like the other Nordic countries, Norway has high living expenses, therefore you'll need about NOK 139,680 (US$17,200) a year.
As a student in Norway, you'd be allowed to work part-time, with a wage range of 135-285 krone($13.2 -$26) per hour 

 

Germany

Nicknamed "the land of ideas," Germany is becoming more and more popular among international students, and it makes sense—it offers a respectable level of living, prominent universities, and reasonably priced living conditions. Except for those in Baden-Württemberg, all public universities do not charge tuition for undergraduate or doctoral degrees.

Although there is a chance to receive financial aid, an M.Sc. student who did not finish their undergraduate studies in Germany could spend up to €20,000 (US$23,450) a year. To meet living expenses, you'll need at least €10,200 (US$11,950) per year; but, depending on your lifestyle, region, and spending patterns, you might need more. Additionally, a wide range of English-taught courses are offered, particularly at the graduate level.

 

Poland

Another great choice for budget-conscious students wishing to study abroad is Poland, which offers top-notch instruction along with a plethora of opportunities to learn about culture and history. You can study for free if you can speak and understand Polish, pass the same entrance exams as Polish students, and complete your coursework in Polish.

Nonetheless, there are several English-taught programs available, with annual costs ranging from €2,000 to $3,500 (US$2,340 to $3,500). Similarly, living expenses are relatively low, with an annual budget of €6,600 (US$7,700). The capital of Poland, Warsaw, was ranked among the top 20 cities for affordability in the 2018 QS Best Student Cities survey.

 

Lithuania

Without a doubt, this is another area with extremely low cost of schooling. For children under 16, education is required in Lithuania. The government is attempting to ensure that everyone in the nation is equipped with the fundamental information of a rational person.

Lithuania remains one of the most affordable countries in the world to study, even if studies also reveal that university professors there receive extremely low salaries.

 

South Africa

South Africa, which wraps up our list of some of the greatest places to study abroad on a tight budget, is well-known for its stunning scenery, diverse culture, and turbulent past. It is a great choice for students who are daring and reasonably priced, requiring little in the way of living and educational costs.

International students at the University of the Western Cape and the University of Cape Town, the best universities in South Africa, pay about US$6,000 per year. Your living expenditures for a year will come to about R 120,000 (US$9,150).

 

As affordable as these countries are they offer quality experiences for international students, some of them have some sort of language barriers, which brings us to the partnership between Macklemore Solutions and Dash language school, this partnership means students who plan on studying abroad with Macklemore Solutions can learn the required language before going offering a discount to Macklemore Solutions clients.
